Les, thanks for that tip, but it didn't change anything--still raw text, either with a document with a few equations (and thus MathML in the XHTML file) or just a simple file containing only the word "Hello". FWIW, when I do open the (x)html file, I get a dialog asking for Character set (default = UTF-8), Default fonts (default = Times New Roman), Language (default = English (US)) and Paragraph break (default = LF). I accepted all the defaults. So it looks at that point like something is about to happen, but then I see only raw text. I also looked at Tools -> Options -> Load/Save -> HTML Compatibility but didn't see anything relevant. Jerry
